And for our film screening of the week we have a documentary called MARLEY.

This film MARLEY, Directed by Kevin MacDonald is the story of Bob Marley's universal appeal, impact on music history and role as a social and political prophet is both unique and unparalleled. The definitive life story of the musician, revolutionary, and legend, from his early days to his rise to international super-stardom. Made with the support of the Marley family, there is rare footage, incredible performances and revelatory interviews with the people that knew him best. Written by Magnolia Pictures  

Growing up in a Jamaican family Bob Marley and Reggae music was what could be heard at family parties and events. As I grew older see the attraction to this music by others is what brought me back bringing me back to learn more about the legend of Bob Marley.

I thought this documentary was done very well giving you eyewitness accounts of many aspects of who Bob Marley was. Much like anyone who comes from humble beginnings to rise to epic heights this is the story that was told. And as every good thing comes to a close so does this story, which was definitely a touching moment of the documentary. So for the film MARLEY I give it 4 stars.

This weeks Film selection is JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT: RADIANT CHILD

Director Tamra Davis pays homage to her friend in this definitive documentary but also delves into Basquiat as an iconoclast. His dense, bebop-influenced neoexpressionist work emerged while minimalist, conceptual art was the fad; as a successful black artist, he was constantly confronted by racism and misconceptions. Much can be gleaned from insider interviews and archival footage, but it is Basquiat's own words and work that powerfully convey the mystique and allure of both the artist and the man. Written by Sundance Film Festival

For not knowing truly much about Jean-Michel Basquiat before watching this film other than he died before his time and that he was close friends with Andy Warhol was all I knew. I really learned a great deal about this amazing artist and with the most of it coming in his own words as the film featured video interviews with Basquiat. He was a soft-spoken man with a childlike creativity and that really came threw with each interview segment.

Furthermore, the film/documentary did a great job in depicting the life and times of the era in which Basquiat went from a “nobody” to a prolific artist still relevant today. I thoroughly enjoyed this film. It was informative, entertaining, and definitely held my attention through out I give this film 4 stars.

TOP 3 VIDEOS OF THE WEEK

In an attempt to add more valuable content to our blog we are bringing back our movie review of the week. Our first entry is the film BELLFLOWER.   Enjoy!

BELLFLOWER produced in 2011 is the story of two friends as they venture out into the world to begin their adult lives. Literally all their free time is spent building flame-throwers and weapons of mass destruction in hopes that a global apocalypse will occur and clear the runway for their imaginary gang "Mother Medusa". While waiting for the world to end, their call to excitement comes unexpectedly when one of them meets a charismatic young woman and falls hard in love. Quickly integrated into a new group of friends, they set off on a journey of betrayal, love, hate, infidelity and extreme violence more devastating and fiery than any of their apocalyptic fantasies. Often life's simplest and most obvious truths are the hardest to see, but once you've burned everything to the ground it may be the only thing left standing. Written by Coatwolf Productions  

BELLFLOWER was written and directed by Evan Glodell

My personal take on the film was that it was very entertaining and definitely unfolded an unexpected coming of age, boy meets girl type of love story. It started out a bit slow dreading the typical love story setup BELLFLOWER blossomed into something fierce, violent, and a little demented. I also feel the visual style of the film was a plus, as it was shot in this gritty, saturated color giving it a feel all its own. I truthfully enjoyed this film and would recommend it to a friend. I give it 3 STARS.

Today was the 2013 Calendar Brunch @ Nash's. We had a great time thanks to everyone who came out. We'll post some photos from the event soon so stay posted.
